SYNOPSIS

       fix_includes.py [options] [filename] ... < <output from include-what-you-use script>

DESCRIPTION

              OR fix_includes.py -s [other options] <filename> ...

       fix_includes.py  reads  the  output  from  the  include-what-you-use  script  on  stdin -- run with --v=1
       (default) verbose or above -- and, unless --sort_only or  --dry_run  is  specified,  modifies  the  files
       mentioned in the output, removing their old #include lines and replacing them with the lines given by the
       include_what_you_use script.  It also sorts the #include and forward-declare lines.

       All  files  mentioned  in the include-what-you-use script are modified, unless filenames are specified on
       the commandline, in which case only those files are modified.

       The exit code is the number of files that were modified (or that  would  be  modified  if  --dry_run  was
       specified) unless that number exceeds 100, in which case 100 is returned.

OPTIONS

       -h, --help
              show this help message and exit

       -b, --blank_lines
              Put  a  blank  line between primary header file and C/C++ system #includes, and another blank line
              between system #includes and google #includes [default]

       --noblank_lines

       --comments
              Put comments after the #include lines

       --nocomments

       --safe_headers
              Do not remove unused #includes/fwd-declares from header files; just add new ones [default]

       --nosafe_headers

       -s, --sort_only
              Just sort #includes of files listed on cmdline; do not add or remove any #includes

       -n, --dry_run
              Do not actually edit any files; just print diffs.  Return code is 0 if no changes are needed, else
              min(the number of files that would be modified, 100)

       --ignore_re=IGNORE_RE
              fix_includes.py will skip editing any file whose name matches this regular expression.

       --separate_project_includes=SEPARATE_PROJECT_INCLUDES
              Sort #includes for current project separately from all other #includes.  This flag  specifies  the
              root  directory  of  the  current  project. If the value is "<tld>", #includes that share the same
              top-level directory are assumed to be in the same project.  If not  specified,  project  #includes
              will be sorted with other non-system #includes.

       --invoking_command_line=INVOKING_COMMAND_LINE
              Internal flag used by iwyu.py, It should be the command line used to invoke iwyu.py

       -m, --keep_iwyu_namespace_format
              Keep  forward-declaration namespaces in IWYU format, eg. namespace n1 { namespace n2 { class c1; }
              }. Do not convert to "normalized" Google format: namespace n1 {\nnamespace n2 {\n class c1;\n}\n}.

       --nokeep_iwyu_namespace_format
